I think the problem of a less-stable-than-usual -current is basically self-fixing (users yell; contributors think about how they might improve their testing), and requires no fundamental change in philosophy. People should either run releases or snaps, or be prepared to help on the debugging (how about enabling DDB by default in -current GENERIC? ;-) These choices are a wonderful part of this project. I'm speaking as one who lives dangerously with -current on my only home system, backup device at the ready, and very rarely has to boot /kernel.old for a few days. Mark.
